XAMPP can not install xdebug

Hello I have installed xampp, changed the php.ini to this:

[XDebug]
zend_extension = "C:\xampp\php\ext\php_xdebug-2.2.3-5.3-vc9.dll"
xdebug.profiler_append = 0
xdebug.profiler_enable = 1
xdebug.profiler_enable_trigger = 0
xdebug.profiler_output_dir = "C:\xampp\tmp"
xdebug.profiler_output_name = "cachegrind.out.%t-%s"
xdebug.remote_enable = 0
xdebug.remote_handler = "dbgp"
xdebug.remote_host = "127.0.0.1"
xdebug.trace_output_dir = "C:\xampp\tmp"

So I created a php file:

<?php
phpinfo();
?>

Copy pasted the content and pasted in the xdebug wizard and got this output:

If you like Xdebug, and thinks it saves you time and money, please have a look at the donation page.

This tells me that it is not installed, so I followed the instructions and restarted the server. Opened the info php again, copied everything again and pasted it in the wizard again. Press the button and I get the exact same output, I don't know what I am doing wrong can anyone tell me what I do wrong?

In general this extension come with the XAMPP package (look into your \xampp\php\ext folder) but it's not added to your php.ini automatically.

add this line manually into your php.ini

extension=php_xdebug.dll

It's all ;) that worked for me

Step 1: goto https://xdebug.org/wizard.php

step 2: copy and paste your phpinfo output to textarea which will be displayed on https://xdebug.org/wizard.php

step 3: click on analyze my phpinfo() output button, it will analyze your system and based on that it will give you suitable php_xdebug.dll file that you need to put at D:\xampp\php\ext folder

step 4: edit your php.ini file and add following line zend_extension = D:\xampp\php\ext\your-php_xdebug.dll

step 5: Restart Server

As mentioned earlier, make sure your xampp installation doesn't already have php_xdebug file in the php/ext folder before downloading xdebug dll. If the xampp/php/ext folder already has a php_xdebug file, just add 1 line in the php.ini file

[xdebug]
zend_extension = "C:\xampp\php\ext\php_xdebug.dll"

Recent XAMPP version(mine is v3.2.2) already had the file php_xdebug.dll in xampp\php\ext folder , so we don't need go to https://xdebug.org/wizard.php for downloading the file.

Just open the file xampp\php\php.ini, add the codes:

[xdebug]
zend_extension = "C:\xampp\php\ext\php_xdebug.dll"

Restart the XAMPP, then you could see the xdebug is working by type php --version in CMD:

Xdebug

I had the same problem and it was solved checking the versions of php and xampp: it turned out, xampp was 32 bits (installed in a 64 bits computer) and I chose the wrong version of xdebug (it has to be 32 bits).

Have you rectified the issue ?, if not please try this. I am having the same situations as yours, and I got result by

1)php.ini file content

zend_extension = "c:\xampp\php\ext\php_xdebug-2.2.3-5.4-vc9.dll"
xdebug.remote_autostart=on
xdebug.remote_enable=on
xdebug.remote_enable=1
xdebug.remote_handler="dbgp"
;xdebug.remote_host="localhost:81"
xdebug.remote_host=192.168.1.5
;xdebug.remote_connect_back=1
xdebug.remote_port=9000
xdebug.remote_mode=req
xdebug.idekey="netbeans-xdebug"

please place the above mentioned dll at c:\xampp\php\ext\

xdebug.remote_host=192.168.1.5 - This is the IPv4 address of my system, I changed to this because I couldn't debug with localhost and 127.0.0.1.

in NetBeans IDE, open Tools-> Options->PHP->Debugging. The values of debugger port and Session Id should match with the port and idekey specified in php.ini

Now save php.ini, restart Apache and now try for debugging

Thanks Johnson
